What is the carbon footprint of a horse?

I looked at the response to the question on what is the carbon footprint of a horse. It goes on to saw how it’s less than cattle and why. And then it ends by saying it’s less than an automobile. The response doesn’t say what the carbon footprint of a car is. It doesn’t saw the carbon footprint of a horse. It doesn’t compare the footprint between a car and cattle even. Is there an actual measurement for a horse, car, and cow?

Use of Bosals in 4-h shows

My niece is showing her horse. He is 18 years old & has always been ridden in a bosal, but since the Iowa 4-h guidelines don't allow bosals to be used in shows at his age, we now must either get him to use a bit or not show him in the performance classes. Is it really worth taking him out of the bosal, which he listens to & respects? I feel that forcing horses to use a bit when they respond better without them, is unfair to the horse & the 4-h exhibitor. Especially if forcing a bit makes the horse unsafe or less comfortable. We will try to find a bit that will work for him, but is there anything that can be done now or in the future to change this rule? Thank you
